First year rose, need advice on cutting flowers.

This is my girlfriends HT I got her as a gift for V-Day. I just repotted it into a 13 gallon container filled with 52mix.
My gf loves cut flowers and she loves the look and smell of this firefighter ht, but my concern is cutting too much flowers off when the plant is so new to me. (Not sure how old the plant is) Is it safe for the plant to keep cutting these flowers off or should I leave them be? I've already cut 2 flowers off last week. Thanks for the help.
